If the side lengths of B are 2x as long as the side lengths of A then the volume of B should be the volume of A^2
216^2=46,656
46,656-216=46,440
This can be more easily displayed with smaller numbers
If cube X were 2*2*2 then the volume would be 8
If cube Y were 4*4*4 then the volume would be 64
8(volume of cube X)^2=64(volume of cube Y)
1/2+1/2=2/2=1 so 1/2 was eaten and the other half was leftovers.
(8 x 6) 8h =144
48+ 8h=144
144-48= 96
8h=96
96 divided by 8= 12
So he should have to work 12 hours at the restaurant. Hope this helps and sorry if it’s wrong!
So, your problem is ((3x+2))/4) = ((8x-1)/5)?
If so, X= 14/17
